Weird folk

<< < (14/15) > >>

KharBevNor:
Man people on last.fm went mental about that whole thing. It was pretty disgusting actually. Like a lady can't have sex for money then bust some singing chops on a C93 album. What happened to transgression.

Joseph:
But isn't David Tibet supposed to be a Christian now?

How can he be friends with a sex worker! Jesus would've flipped.

Zingoleb:
It's actually really bizarre that I don't have anything to offer this thread, since 'weird folk' is exactly what I like, just not something I actually listen to.

I'd actually second that National Lights album, though it's less weird musically than lyrically; it sounds like folk-rocky love songs until you realize they're about murdering and chopping up and eating yr girlfriend.

I guess the oddest thing I listen to would be Kiss the Anus of a Black Cat.

Vuk:
I love the Current 93 song on The Seven Seals - "The Song of Solomon and How She Sang it to Me". Probably one of my favourite songs.

KharBevNor:
Kiss the Anus of a Black Cat is fucking brilliant. I will always have a soft spot for him anyway because it was his brilliant reimagining of 'Beyond the Tanarian Hills' that first got me to check out Rudimentary Peni. He reminds me a lot of, say, Joy of Nature with a touch of Lux Interna or Pantaleimon, there's that interplay of quite clean guitar and vocals with those massive spacey drones. Very dreamlike atmosphere; I often put on If The Sky Falls, We Shall Catch Larks when I'm smoking. I particularly love the song 'Nihil, as in Nihilism'. I'm still listening to the new album...it takes me ages to get to grips with an album these days, mostly because I can rarely find the time to sit down and give an album a proper listen. I normally listen to music whilst I'm doing something else, or often whilst I'm going to sleep, if it's the right sort of music.
